Worst movie going experience

Hi folks,
Belated merry Christmas n Happy New Year in advance (just in case)
Right now I’m at my home town, enjoying the much needed and well deserved break from chatting, eating out, surfing, counterstrike, novels, movie and pretty much all the stuffs a typical soon-to-be-engineer would do.
So on 25th December my school buddies decide to go to this special hall named Asha talkies to watch Aamir’s Ghajini (well logically it was everyone else’s Ghajini too but the only reason I agreed to go after watching a lot of bollywood crap is Aamir’s-a-movie-a-year commitment) Now I had never heard of this cinema hall before, and was surprised that they actually put up Ghajini the day it was released nation wide. Because my hometown is a place where kaho naa pyar hai was released in a hall 24 km away, one month later. Eventually we all ended up at Asha talkie; with 20 bucks a balcony ticket (first day second show, beat that!)

And then as they say “all good things must come to an end.”

We were informed that the movie starts around 3.15 pm. everyone started standing in a single line near the entrance. We joined dutifully. Then the line became lines and by 3.00pm it was more or less a big mob of rustic local people jostling around and packed in the entrance like choc-a-bloc. And to our horror we realized our tickets were not number!! It was rationale of us to get into the mad mob to grab a seat and watch the movie. So did us. One hour (midst a hundred swear words, pan spittle, sweaty and stinky crowd) later the entrance was yet to be opened.

We couldn’t take it any longer. Ghajini be damned!! After all it was just a frame to frame copy of Asin Surya’s Tamil version, which again was a copy of the Hollywood flick memento. Damn Indian directors! Damn Aamir khan!! Damn releasing the movie on a Thursday! And finally damn Asha talkies!!!!

Finally returned back to home after a long drive with friends and watched ghajini (Tamil) and memento again.

Worst movie going experience ever!! Of course it had nothing to do with the movie (2 days later, I firmly agree)

Small towns as they say never grow up!!
